Nora Cummings, enn pchit fee Michif is a Métis Elder’s powerful story of lifelong resistance against settler colonial oppression. Drawn from a series of interviews between trailblazing Métis activist and leader Nora Cummings and Métis historian Cheryl Troupe, this memoir offers a rare glimpse into the genesis of the local resistance that became a national movement demanding reconciliation. At its heart is enn pchit fee Michif, whose determination created a better life for herself and her Métis community.
Visiting with Aunties is a collection of stories told by Métis and Cree Aunties are as complex, engaging, and powerful as the women themselves, imbued with generations of wisdom and knowledge. Visiting with Aunties uses storytelling by and about Aunties to deepen our understanding of Indigenous women’s kinship systems. What can these ties teach us about women in relation to other women, to the land, and to traditional knowledge?
